Better to retire healthy and financially secure than to end up as a punch drunk gatekeeper. Maybe have a homecoming / farewell fight in PR next summer, then move on to other things. Whatever he decides though, I wish him the best, Cotto's been one of my favourite fighters of the last ten years.

Lifelong fan of Cotto, but a ginger/Cotto ppv woud be a slap in my face. However as I stream, I'll be expecting upset all the way. The way I figure it, if Cotto's elder career lightweight brother can hurt ginger, the mass shouldn't be surprised if Cotto does better.

Old Shane had more power than Cotto's little brother and he didn't hurt him at all. Canelo might be a little better now than he was back when he fought lil cotto
